独立写作考题：
Some people prefer to buy technological devices as soon as they are available to the public, while other people prefer to wait until many people have used them, which do you prefer?
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
中文解读：
当新的电子产品刚刚面世，有的人选择立刻购买、有的人选择等一段时间后再买，你倾向于哪一方？
（重复2016年6月15日托福考试真题）
首先提醒各位考生，一定不能将该题解读为“是否应该购买新的电子产品”—— 切记，在考试中，一旦出现偏题现象，独立写作的分数会很低；所以各位考生在审题时，一定要仔细，抓住题目的核心话题，必要时也要看下题目中可能存在的背景或者陷阱信息、以防出现跑题。
对于该题，我相信考生们的写作思路应该是很多的，毕竟，每个考生在生活中还是有很多使用到电子产品或者接触到新的电子产品的机会。所以，对于该题，不管选择哪一方，均有很多的话术展开文章。
01
一上市就购买
1）立即购买，紧跟潮流，与朋友之间会有更多共同语言（参考话术：purchasing the newly launched technological products immediately enables us to follow the fashion trend, which can provides us more new topics to communicate with friends and then, the friendship can be better maintained）
2）立即购买，可以尝试各种新的功能，可以立刻体验后改善生活质量（参考话术：if we purchase the newly launched technological products, it is definitely a good chance for us to experience various new functions, undoubtedly helping to improve our life quality to some extent）
等一等再买
02
1）新出来的产品功能不完善，过一段时间等功能完善了再买会比较明智（参考话术：it is wise to buy the device later when its deficiencies get fixed because when a new technological device is available to the public for the first time, there may well be several inconspicuous imperfections existing in it）
2）新出来的产品价格普遍较高，等一段时间后价格会更加理性（参考话术：the price of a newly launched technological device is relatively higher. Specifically, when popular device is firstly brought to the market, the supply falls short of demand, which results in a higher price than its real value, but after a period of time, the price will return to a reasonable level）
以上为针对5.12日的托福独立写作思路分析，类似“购买科技产品”或者“科技发展利弊”的题目每年虽然不会像教育类或者工作类话题高频率出现，但是也会不定期出现的，所以建议大家平时多多积累与该话题相关的相关话术内容。

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement：
People should not spend a lot of time communicating by technologies, such as through social media or text messages.
其实题目中比较的是social media or text messages和face-to-face interaction，分析时可以联想这两者所存在的相关优势和劣势
Agree:
1) Spending too much on communicating by technologies will definitely be detrimental to our communication skills, which are of great importance for our life and work.
2) Face-to-face interaction contributes to building intimacy and sincere friendship
3) Less reliance on technology in communication helps to reduce misunderstanding.
Admittedly, communicating by technologies is convenient.
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
Today people cannot buy products based on information in their advertisements because advertisements are less honest than before.
该题从advertisement角度出发，可以找寻到的是：消费者，公司或者企业，或者政府部门。
1) customers today have the ability to judge the authenticity of advertisements
2) companies do not dare to make the fake advertisement, considering the long-run reputation
3) the governmental department has carried out some relevant strategies to ensure the reality of the advertisements
